Live 01 Aug 1999 version
[Spoken intro:] I need a round of applause for Kevin Buell who saved my guitar. When I was throwing it like a fool. Thanks Kevin.
One, two, three, four!
Well there's a river runs through this valley, cold and deep and black
Coming like a tombstone shadow across my back
Trouble river, six foot high and rising
Trouble river, I can't keep from crying
Well I woke up last night shaking, shaking from a dream
All I seen was smiling faces staring back at me
Trouble river, six foot high and rising
Trouble river, I can't keep from crying
Yeahhh
Snakes crawling in the house, I'm stuck in muddy ground
Tonight I'm gonna shed this skin 'cause water's rising and I'm going down to
Trouble river, six foot high and rising
Trouble river, I can't keep from crying
Yeahhh whoa!
Trouble river
Trouble river
Hoo hoo hoooo, hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoooo, hoo hoo hoo
